I decide to buy a standard Board of education include the·module, but I·find out that it has two type, serial and USB·, so is this two are the same only different in connection? How about the send out command respond time, will USB faster than serial?

    efly,

    ·· The USB version appears to the computer as a COM port when the drivers are installed.· The editor communicates with it at the same speed.· So no, there is no difference other than connection.· The USB version is there mostly for people who no longer have a Serial port.
